Ok for all you component guys, I'm looking for some tweets to go along with my pioneers in my fairing. Running a SS pn4.520 up front on the pair of pioneers, and another SS pn4.520 running my 4 6x9's in my bags. Everything rocks hard but I feel I'm lacking crisp highs up front so want to add a pair tweeter up front. Got plenty of power up front for them & can drop the load on the amp & running kenwood head unit. What's everyone running & any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

I'd just get a set of Infinity 62.11i's and throw em in the fairing if I were you. No need for tweets. Those speakers will sound good with the 4 pioneers in the saddle bags. Good mix of highs and lows.

....down here all the chopped “bagger” guys are running these or similar. The make a difference in over all loudness. I went with cheap sound stream tweeters, and they make “some” difference but nothing too noticeable, but they were only 25.00 bucks for the set so I’d say worth the price.

I agree with Gannicus. I have the Infinities and they are quite bright with the highs. They have a +3db button right on their tweeters so you can adjust them as well.

Running Pioneer TSD1602R 6.5" in the fairing now bridged. They hump it out with some power to them, but noticed they lack a little on the highs.

i put pair of pioneer-ts-d6902r up for trade here on the forum being I went with Memphis 6x9's in my bags & never used these. Got a fellow that offered a set of J&M's tweeters for the gauge holes but never heard back from him. Are they pretty bright & balanced with the fairing speaks being they are in the gauge holes? Being I got Apes going on I thought about mounting tweets in the stock mirror locations being the stock mirrors r gone being useless

Just curious Brent. . . How do those Memphis 6 X 9's sound in the bags? I've not heard those. And what model number are they?
